Death: let's make it more fun

[Psychopath]

Hey, here's a pickle
what if you get stabbed in the face, instead of the back?

You read the first post and realize that your question means nothing.

I think my main problem with the scout one is that he turns and falls to fast. He should turn around then fall, not fall while turning.


The other one is more like
OH MY GOD MY SPINE. WHO DID THIS? OH YOU FUC-dies.-

This one is more like someone punched him across the face, and he got knocked out.

I like the heavy and engie, the only thing I request on him is a head bob when he falls to his knees. Medic seems like his arms go to high. It's almost like he's wryying. perhaps the angle upwards is too sharp, but regardless it still looks good. The spy looks great as well, but the only problem is the lack of a frame or 2 at the start of it. 1 frame makes a large difference.

Scout's gonna look better when the frames are slower (I think).
Engie...ok, I guess, 2 requests are enough to make me improve it.
And I know the Medic looks strange... Well, It's actually 1 or 2 frames to change, so no big deal.
But don't expect me to do anything until friday.

Your animations are okay in general, but they could use a lot more work with the exception of the engineer. That one's almost perfect aside from the sliding that I presume is from you moving it within the small frame.

So just a thought for Quote. Death animation, then an explosion. Not one that does the same damage as a rocket or sticky, but with the same general blast radius as one or the other. Just minor damage to enemies, knockback for friendlies. A "Last Breath" sort of thing.

I'm not too fond of any "last breath" style death sequences, the reason being is that it encourages kamikaze attacks when at low health.

Some players might get into the mindset that running back to resupply for health just is not worth the time when they can go down in a blaze of glory and take someone down with them BECAUSE they died.

Well, like I said, minor damage. Like, so unnoticable that it doesn't even matter.

You're seeing an explosion, so if not the damage, why not just the knockback? It's not like it'd do much anyway.

Heh funny thing won't it be good for separating groups?
For CP and Arena wise.

I know how to make sprite sheets. I just don't know how to animate them... how do you guys animate it?

Then we'll see hordes of Quoots charging into the enemy lines when they don't have anything to actually cap the points.

Then I'll laugh.

And Laugh.

And Laugh.













Then maybe cry but it's alright for men to cry.

Oh forgot to answer that.
Use Beneton Movie Gif its real good.
Make some blank frames
Copy and paste the sprite frame by frame(you can make edits on the same drawing program)
right click change frame delay
watch it loop
decide if you like it.
save into what ever

Use photoshop if you have it. It's got a built in gif animator which works fine.

The last frame looks weird to me now.
